tween headlands, 1t Is stated positively that
the Department OF State has never taken

asserting or denying any right of jurisdlc-
ton over the waters Of Behring seq.

The Assassination of Editor Stone

FORT SMITH, Ark, Oct. 4.-E; y;
Stone, editor of the Telephone, was kiile q
on Friday last at Tahlequah, Cherokee
nation, by E C. Boudinot. Jr.. editor Of
the Cherokee Advocate. The killing grew
out of the political muddle now aeitatiDg
the Cherokee people. The Telephone;
which is The organ Of the Mays party, said
some very hard things about Boudinot,
whose paper is run In the interest Of the
RabbId Bunch or National party. Boudinot
went to Stone and demanded an apology
or retraction, when Stone made motion
as If 10 draw a pistol, and Boudinot shot
him.
Frank Boudinot, brother of E. c., ar
rived here today to prepare bond for his
brother, who Is now In this vicinity and
will probably surrender tomorrow to the
United States marshal, claiming he acted
in self-defense. Col. E. G. Boudinot of
this city Is the uncle of the Advocate edi
tor, and is being consulted, as Is also Chief
Bushyheed, of the Cnerokees, who Is here.
